Hermantown High hockey coach Patrick Andrews on the upcoming 2023-24 season: "As we sit one month out from the start of our season we have two guys excelling at juniors and six players in the fall elite league, as well as countless other guys playing in a variety of fall leagues. Many of our top guys are also leaders on the gridiron and soccer pitch and they are focused on their team's success as they head into playoffs. This upcoming hockey season, as in every season, we will focus on getting better every day when we step on the ice for practice and we will compete every shift of every game as the season goes on. If we grow in practice, compete in the games, and ultimately just focus on ourselves, making our team the best it can be day in and day out, I see great potential in this group."

Howie: Northstar Ford Arena opens January 3

For the broader community, Northstar Ford Arena is a gathering place — the kind that small towns understand better than anyone. Rinks aren’t just buildings here. They’re living rooms. Story banks. Time machines. They hold memories whether they’re supposed to or not.
